I also love Project You Yoga- this is about 20 minutes and a little more Yoga inspired, but has a nice stretchy flow to it. Also to feel really stretch Kathy Smiths Rejuvenation set with the stretching band is great and hits everything.
I will look into Focus T25, as this sounds like more of what I want. Kathy Smith's yoga has always been good, but it's been so many years since I tried the PY workouts, I don't remember them well enough. Thanks for the recommendations. Kathy is such a fitness icon
so I should look at Rejuvenation, too! Who doesn't like a DVD title that sounds so spa-like.

Debbie also has the 60-min Cool It Off from slim series. it's longer, but you can always do what you can and continue later.

if you like athletic stretch that's <30 min, here's some oldies:
Madeleine Lewis AM PM Stretch (2, 25-min stretches, and a bonus 20 min)
Madeleine's walking kit also came with a stretch workout using a strap
Tamilee's stretching 2-DVD set; each is 30 min
Thanks, I have both of Debbie's other workouts and should have mentioned those. Both excellent but one is too short and other too long with CIOE being the goldilock's workout.

I also have the other three and have used Tamilee's more than Madeleine's. Good recommendations all around! Appreciate you mentioning ones I had in my collection already!

you're welcome.

DH loves Karen Voight's Pure & Simple Stretch, but iirc, it's 40 min, slightly longer than what you requested.

TBS by Debbie - agreeing with the other poster that it's not like CIOx or any of her other stretching workouts. it's supposed to be rehabilitative, and it's the sort of routine that you'll need to do over time to get the relief. she co-teaches it with Chad Waterbury.

speaking of Karen voight, i really liked her Streamline fitness yoga section. it's at the end of the "P.M." workout, and is roughly 16 min. if this is too short, the 2nd workout from her Yoga Power DVD called "Yoga Stretch" is 25 min long. her DVDs have a good menu where you can go directly to the section that you want.
